De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson said that De’Aaron Fox (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Wednesday’s Game 2 against the Thunder.

Fox, who injured his right ankle during the Minnesota series, did not play in Monday’s double-overtime victory. Dylan Harper started and was outstanding, recording 24 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, seven steals, one three-pointer and one turnover. The rookie would get another start if Fox can’t play. Also, Stephon Castle must take better care of the ball after committing 11 turnovers on Monday.
Dylan Harper

SAS Guard #2

Dylan Harper started on Monday and contributed 24 points (8-of-20 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), 11 rebounds, six assists, seven steals and one three-pointer against the Thunder.

Harper slid into the starting lineup with De’Aaron Fox (ankle) unavailable for this game, and he took advantage of the opportunity. Harper split ball handling duties with Stephon Castle and truly looked like a 10-year veteran, not a 20-year-old rookie. If Fox returns for Game 2 on Wednesday, Harper will likely be pushed back to playing a reserve role, though that will still be enough minutes for him to continue to make an impact, especially after how well he played in this one.
Stephon Castle

SAS Guard #5

Stephon Castle finished with 17 points (5-of-14 FGs), six rebounds, 11 assists, one steal, one three-pointer and 11 turnovers against the Thunder on Monday.

With De’Aaron Fox (ankle) sidelined, Castle took on more responsibility as the primary ball handler for San Antonio. The results were mixed; he facilitated well, but he also turned the ball over a ton. He reached double-digit assists for the second time this postseason, but he technically recorded a triple-double due to how many turnovers he had. It wasn’t an efficient performance, but Castle had some bright moments, and they were still able to steal Game 1 on the road without Fox.
Victor Wembanyama

SAS Forward-Center #1

Victor Wembanyama led the Spurs with 41 points (14-of-25 FGs, 12-of-13 FTs), 24 rebounds, three assists, one steal, three blocks and one three-pointer in a 122-115 win over the Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Monday.

In his first conference finals appearance, Wemby made a massive impact early and often. He entered halftime with a double-double and was incredibly active on the offensive glass. He set a new career high for offensive boards for both the regular season and playoffs. Of course, he made a monster impact on both ends of the floor, which included multiple big plays down the stretch to help the Spurs take the first game of this series and homecourt advantage. This was an otherworldly performance, but against a team as talented as OKC, he’ll need to keep it up throughout the series.
Luke Kornet

SAS Center-Forward #7

Luke Kornet (foot) is available to play against the Thunder in Game 1 on Monday.

Kornet was initially listed as questionable for this game, but he will be good to go. He’ll continue to fill out the backup center minutes behind Victor Wembanyama.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox (ankle) has been ruled out against the Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Monday.

Up until an hour before tipoff, the expectation was that Fox would suit up for this game. However, the Spurs will be without their star point guard, though if there is a team built to withstand this type of loss, it’s San Antonio. They’ll likely turn to rookie Dylan Harper to replace Fox in the starting unit, with Stephon Castle taking on even more playmaking responsibility.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox (ankle) has been upgraded to probable for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Thunder on Monday.

Fox is still plagued with a sore right ankle, but he’s expected to play through it at Paycom Center. San Antonio’s veteran point guard averaged 17.7 points, three rebounds and five assists across 31.5 minutes in six games of the Western Conference semis against Minnesota.
Luke Kornet

SAS Center-Forward #7

Luke Kornet (foot) is questionable for Monday’s Game 1 against the Thunder.

Kornet is dealing with a sore left foot, and a potential absence would affect the back end of the Spurs’ rotation. He averaged 13.8 minutes per game in the second round, which included a spike in playing time in Game 4 due to Victor Wembanyama’s second-quarter ejection. If Kornet can’t play on Monday, more minutes would become available to Carter Bryant.
De'Aaron Fox

SAS Guard #4

De’Aaron Fox (ankle) is questionable for Monday’s Game 1 against the Thunder.

Fox continues to deal with a sore right ankle, but the injury did not force him to miss any games during San Antonio’s second-round series against Minnesota. If he’s unable to play on Monday, Dylan Harper would take on a more prominent role, with there also being more minutes for Harrison Barnes.
Julian Champagnie

SAS Forward #30

Julian Champagnie amassed 18 points (5-of-10 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, two steals and four three-pointers in Friday’s Game 6 win over the Timberwolves.

After shooting a combined 4-of-19 from beyond the arc in Games 3 through 5, Champagnie found his shot in Friday’s series clincher. The Spurs’ wing knocked down four of nine attempts in the 139-109 victory and finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Given the test that awaits in the conference finals, the Spurs will need a consistent Champagnie if they’re to knock off the Thunder. Game 1 is on Monday in Oklahoma City.
